I got a new one from this site. It was like 27 dollars.

[Hatterasguy]

From this site or the dealer, and they run just under $30.

[pawoSD]

Yep, just go to the dealer, they're not that expensive.


Be thankful its not a Jag! That enormous statue/emblem on their hoods costs nearly $80!!

[turbobenz]

Ill sell you one. Used, but in fine condition 15 dollars

You're correct, I forgot that they finally closed that deal. Of course, it will probably take a decade to undo the damage.

Actualy except for the X type and the old S type Ford didn't do so bad. They never touched the XJ/XK8's.

The new Jag's are certainly more reliable than they have ever been, not a MB by a long shot but getting there.
